Object Design, Incorporated (often called ODI) was a software company founded in 1988 which developed and commercialized an object database called ObjectStore. Object Design was founded by several former Symbolics employees, including Daniel Weinreb, and was based in Burlington, Massachusetts. Its ObjectStore object-oriented database shipped in 1990. In 1994, ODI was listed as No. 1 on ''Inc.'' magazine's list of fastest-growing private companies in the U.S.〔Leigh Buchanan, "The No.1 Companies From 1982 -- 2005: Where Are They Now?", ''Inc.'', 1 September 2006 ()〕 A major early customer was Telstra , which used it to map toll-free telephone numbers to an end point close to the caller, for example a local taxi company or chain restaurant. ODI's went public in 1996, and was listed on NASDAQ as ODIS.〔Find The Company, "Object Design Inc. (ODIS) Initial Public Offering" http://ipo.findthecompany.com/l/444/Object-Design-Inc〕 In 1999, ODI shipped its eXcelon XML application development environment, which it marketed as an "integration server".〔 In January 2000, ODI was renamed eXcelon and focussed its marketing on XML integration software.〔Eugene Grygo, "Object Design reinvents itself as eXcelon", ''InfoWorld'' 31 January 2000, p. 16〕 In 2002, ODI was acquired by Progress Software, which continued to develop it. In 2013, Progress Software sold the ObjectStore product line (among others) to Aurea Software, Inc., a newly formed operating subsidiary of ESW Capital, the investment arm of Trilogy Enterprises. As part of the deal, ObjectStore moved to a separate operating subsidiary of ESW Capital. ==References== 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Object Design, Incorporated」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
